【题目】It was a shock and a painful lesson for many people when the police announced the cause of a bus accident in Chongqing on Oct 28. Video footage (片段) from inside the bus suggested that after a passenger missed her stop and asked the driver to stop, but he refused. She began hitting him over the head with her cell phone. During the conflict, the driver lost control of the bus and it jumped into the Yangtze River, causing 15 deaths.

Zheng Chuankai, a lawyer in Beijing, said the accident showed that it was important that those who cause danger to public safety face severe punishment. Such attacks are inhuman but common. In fact, it is not rare to hear of passengers attacking bus drivers in China. This month, a local court in Shenyang, Liaoning province, sentenced three people to up to three years in prison for endangering public safety by distracting bus drivers, Xinhua reported. “Passengers who interfere (妨碍) with bus drivers are endangering public safety, which is equal to serious crimes like arson (纵火) and poisoning.” Liu Changsonga Beijing lawyer, told the Global Times.

To prevent similar cases from happening, many Chinese cities have taken measures to keep bus drivers safe. Dozens of cities including Beijing, Xi’an, Wuhan, Changsha and Nanning have plans to add safety fences to buses to protect drivers from any interference by passengers.

The bus operator in Quanzhou, Fujian Province, has invited psychologists to teach drivers how to manage their emotions when facing an angry passenger. These measures are necessary, but they are not enough.

“Public security is closely connected with social morality (道德). People should obey the law, be more self-disciplined and sensible.”

Many countries have introduced measures to deal with the problem of violence against bus drivers. On every bus in the US state of New Jersey, a sign on the back of the driver’s seat warns passengers that anyone attacking a driver can be fined or put into prison.

In London, the local government has launched a program to train drivers to deal with angry passengers and avoid potential conflicts.

1How did the police find out the cause of the accident?

A. From the witnesses to the accident. B. From the recorded video in the bus.

C. From the survivals of the accident. D. From the police’s reasoning.

2What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?

A. Interfering public safety is a serious crime.

B. Being a bus driver is a dangerous job.

C. Arson and poisoning are very common in the society.

D. It’s important to know how to protect a bus driver.

3What’s the author’s attitude towards training drivers to avoid conflicts with passengers?

A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.

C. Opposed. D. Uncaring.

4Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. A Terrible Traffic Accident.

B. A Bus Jumping into the Yangtze River.

C. Keeping Away from the Dangerous Bus.

D. Attack on Bus Driver Brings Safety Review.

【题目】 Let us all raise a glass to AlphaGo and the advance of artificial intelligence. AlphaGo

DeepMind’s Go-playing AIjust defeated the best Go-playing humanLee Sedol. But as we drink to its success. we should also begin trying to understand what it means for the future.

The number of possible moves in a game of Go is so huge that. in order to win against a player like Lee. AlphaGo was designed to adopt a human—like style of gameplay by using a relatively recent development--deep learning. Deep learning uses large data sets“machine learning”algorithms (计算程序) and deep neural networks to teach the AI how to perform a particular set of tasks. Rather than programming complex Go rules and strategies into AlphaGoDeepMind designers taught AlphaGo to play the game by feeding it data based on typical Go moves. ThenAlphaGo played against itself, tirelessly learning from its own mistakes and improving its gameplay over time. The results speak for themselves.

Deep learning represents a shift in the relationship humans have with their technological creations. It results in AI that displays surprising and unpredictable behaviour. Commenting after his first lossLee described being shocked by an unconventional move he claimed no human would ever have made. Demis Hassabis. one of DeepMind's foundersechoed this comment“We're very pleased that AlphaGo played some quite surprising and beautiful moves. ”

Unpredictability and surprises are—or can be—a good thing. They can indicate that a system is working wellperhaps better than the humans that came before it. Such is the case with AlphaGo. Howeverunpredictability also indicates a loss of human control. That Hassabis is surprised at his creation's behaviour suggests a lack of control in the design. And though some loss of control might be fine in the context of a game such as Goit raises urgent questions elsewhere.

How much and what kind of control should we give up to AI machines? How should we design appropriate human control into AI that requires us to give up some of that very control? Is there some AI that we should just not develop if it means any loss of human control? How much of a say should corporationsgovernmentsexperts or citizens have in these matters? These important questions, and many others like themhave emerged in responsebut remain unanswered. They require humannot human - likesolutions.

So as we drink to the milestone in AI, let's also drink to the understanding that the time to answer deeply human questions about deep learning and AI is now.

1What contributes most to the unconventional move of AlphaGo in the game?

A. The capability of self-improvement.

B. The constant input of large data sets.

C. The installation of deep neutral networks.

D. The knowledge of Go rules and strategies.

2A potential danger of Al is _____.

A. the loss of human control B. the friendly relationship

C. the fierce competition D. the lack of challenge

3How should we deal with the unpredictability of AI?

A. We should stop AI machines from developing even further.

B. We should call on the government to solve these problems for us.

C. We should rely on ourselves and come up with effective solutions.

D. We should invent even more intelligent machines to solve everything.

4What's the author’s attitude towards this remarkable advance in AI?

A. Supportive. B. Optimistic.

C. Doubtful. D. Cautious.
